Driving myself insane :(

[Starlight84]

I’ve not felt movement since yesterday lunch time and I can’t stop thinking about it! I am 22+5. I know they wouldn’t be concerned until 24 weeks but still doesn’t stop me worrying! I usually feel movement when I lay down in bed. So I’ll see what happens when I go up at 10! I think I need to relax. It’s like he’s sensing me waiting for him so he’s not! So hard to not worry xx

Try not to worry I know it's hard. Would a bath help do you think?

Almost certainly fine, still early days for movement. HOWEVER if you're worried tomorrow just give your maternity triage a ring. They won't turn you away.

Thank you for replying. I’m a single mum so I don’t have a partners ear to chew off 🤣 I have decided that I will call in the morning if I have no definite movement. A friend has recently lost a baby a couple weeks behind me so I just worry so much with everything even more now xx

Give them a call, they should still check you over and listen in to baby's heartbeat with a doppler

Do the sugary drink/chocolate thing and lie on your side and see if it creates any movement.
If not then call. I know its still early for a pattern so it's likely nothing is wrong, but if you've already started feeling movement, then as soon as you have a period when you don't, you should call.
They'd rather you call and get checked than not, they don't see it as a waste of time or anything.

@Frizzy1886 I tried a ice cold drink, lying on my side, something sugary, the torch, talking, star jumps!! I think the more I tried that didn’t work the more I worried! Yes this is what I don’t like when you feel regular movements then nothing! Little monkey! Thank you. I always feel like I’m being silly then chicken out calling but can’t spend another day worrying!
